P: Guides - VERY laggy when dragging guides

If the toolbar is between the ruler and the destination of a vertical guide, the guide lags *very* slowly behind the cursor, and the beachball spins while the guide crawls towards the point where it's dragged. Dragging below the toolbar, or moving the toolbar to the right avoids the bug. Mac, not unique to one machine.

Hello, From an enduser perspective, I can understand, but sometimes you need to perform work because of ageing Operating System APIs, or to be able to work with tomorrow's technologies. OpenGL is almost dead, soon DirectX or Metal will be the only way to work with GPUs... So plumbing work needs to be done.

Whoever changed the guides feature in PS 22.3. I don't know what the little kids did... but they screwed it up royally! PLEASE US THE ADAGE "IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT! Sliding a guide used to be easy from the horizontal or vertical ruler... not anymore! Fix it back!

Yep, as I said, temporary workaround...

Glad to hear it somehow helps, despite muscle memory...

Yes, that does work. Now I just need to overcome 20+ years of habit.

Hi! As a temporary workaround, did you try ALT+dragging from the horizontal ruler, to avoid the toolbar?
